The color of Vegas
Is the gradient of a fading sunset
The color of Vegas
Is neon signs and crackling smiles
The color of Vegas
Is grey smoke and three golden sevens
The color of Vegas
Is overpriced steak and wet sand
Today
The color of Vegas
Is broken teeth
And
Grasping at a lover’s sleeve
And
Tears stained red
And
Flashes of blinding sound
And
Terror and screams
Today
The color of Vegas
Is splashing in the streets
The color of Vegas
Is the color of you and me

AT MANDALAY BAY ON THE VEGAS STRIP
AT A COUNTRY MUSIC CONCERT
FROM THE 32ND FLOOR A SHOOTER
OPENED FIRE ON THE CROWD
THE CONCERT GOERS RAN FOR COVER
THE BULLETS SOUNDED OUT LOUD
OUR WORLD HAS NOW BECOME VERY DANGEROUS
WITH OUR INNOCENCE TAKEN AWAY
THE VIOLENT ATTACKS NOW TAKING PLACE
HAVE BECOME OUR JUDGEMENT DAY
WHAT CAN WE DO TO STOP THIS EVIL
FOR INNOCENT LIVES ARE THE COST
BUT THESE LONE WOLFS STILL PERSIST
AND INNOCENT LIVES ARE LOST
THE FEAR AND TERROR THAT THEY SPREAD
WILL NEVER DESTROY OUR HEART
BECAUSE OUR PASSION FOR LOVE AND LIFE
OF OUR COMMUNITY WILL NEVER EVER PART
OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH
THE FAMILIES OF THIS EVIL ACT.
